Ishiqkiya!

Love? Lust? Hatred? Revenge? Redemption? Or... everything?

This movie is a cocktail of all the above emotions which is bound to give you a 'high' as you revel in its complexities and leaves you with a pleasant hangover as your musings enjoy its rerun in your mind! The one word that describes the movie is 'crass' or may be even 'devious'! With an utter lack of principles or even a hint of decency the main characters go about their life with a happy go lucky attitude until they land in a world of trouble. Shah and Warsi expertly play their parts of wayward criminals who elope with their brother-in-law’s dough!

Lacy Luck brings brings them to Balan's door step who willingly welcomes them into her empty home. Balan has previously lost her criminal husband to a gas explosion that she herself narrowly escaped! Once the money has mysteriously disappeared, the trio find themselves in a spot...desperate to save their lives! Balan convinces the unruly duo into a seemingly simple kidnapping scheme to earn their loot back and assumes the role of a temptress to ensure the duo’s lasting commitment to their scheme. Balan manages to seduce both men and that is the audience’s first clue to her not so benign intentions! What follows afterward is a series of goof ups and tons of drama as the story unfolds. The climax is pretty unpredictable and the fresh twist makes this a welcome change!

Balan's undying love for her dead husband, Warsi's lust, Balan's hatred and revenge and the duo's desperate attempt at redemption! All in a all a power packed must see Bollywood movie.... that is for those fools who question the film’s entertainment quality inspite of the Shah-Warsi-Balan combination!
